It hasn't traded since March 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 91 m² the property is well over the postcode median (60 m² across 27 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 74% of similar EPCs). Across 2000–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £146,000 is 32.7% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£112/sq ft) was about 16.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
